Weekly Reading -- November 8-14, 2015 -- Connolly Tarot

Our reading this week is sunny and bright -- just like the deck I used, the Connolly Tarot.

Our Work card is the Five of Pentacles, reversed. The Five of Pentacles is often referred to as the "poverty card". It's about financial hardship but it can also be about emotional hardship. Sometimes we can feel outcast, like we don't belong ... or we can deliberately adopt that mindset out of a belief that the world is a terrible place, no one is trustworthy, and we need to handle things on our own. As the card was reversed, I believe a lightening of this feeling is in the works this week. We may have felt under a lot of financial or emotional pressure and that pressure is lessening. We are beginning to see relief.

Our Love/Relationship card is The Chariot. This is a wonderful card as it indicates powerful forward movement, confidence in yourself and your abilities. If you're single and have your eye on someone, you could be ready to move forward and approach them ... or you could simply be ready to get out in the dating arena again. If you are attached, this card could mean moving to the next phase of your relationship: an engagement, the purchase of a home for the two of you, or the decision to start a family. The Chariot is also about balancing our dark and light sides and making them work together harmoniously. This is extremely important if any relationship is going to flourish.

Our Health card is The Empress. This is an amazing card to show up in this area as The Empress is all about abundance, nature, fertility, and love. She is the Divine Mother. Abundance flows to her because she IS abundance. She gives freely and receives freely. I think that expressing love to others is going to be key this week and in turn this will benefit you so much emotionally and physically. Be kind, open, and giving this week. Receive kindness and love from others. Forgive petty differences because resentment breeds negativity. The Empress is also very much about pleasure. Get out in the outdoors and enjoy the sensuality and beauty of your surroundings. Give yourself to whatever you're doing emotionally and physically this week.

Enjoy this beautiful energy!

Weekly Reading -- June 1-7, 2015 -- Psychic Tarot

Welcome to another weekly reading! This week's cards are from John Holland's Psychic Tarot.

Our reading is comprised of two Pentacles or earthly cards and one chakra card this week. Chakras are energy centers in the body. The solar plexus chakra card which came up in our reading signifies our "power center" or self image center.

Some of us could be feeling a lack or instability in finances this week. We need to watch our money extremely carefully and make sure to spend or distribute finances wisely. Strengthening our solar plexus chakra could help us navigate the week more easily. I have included a link to a solar plexus chakra meditation which is highly recommended.

Enjoy the reading and see you on Friday for our final You Pick the Card draw.

Tarot Tuesday #23: FIVE OF RAINBOWS -- Are You Feeling Like an Outcast?

Our card this week is from the Zen Osho deck and it is the Five of Rainbows (or Five of Pentacles in the Rider-Waite system). The Five of Rainbows is about a sense of lack. It's about feeling like you're left out, excluded, down on your luck, or simply feeling lost and vulnerable.

The image of this card from the Zen Osho deck is particularly poignant because it depicts a small child standing forlornly outside a locked gate peering at what's on the other side. One strap of his overalls has fallen down giving that sense of a feeling of helplessness and vulnerability. We all feel like this at times and it's important to remember that if you're going through a tough time this week -- whether it's financial struggle or just feeling like you're all alone in the world -- this time will pass. It's not enough to simply hope that things will change, though. Keep your eyes and ears open for opportunities, for people who can give you a hand or some helpful advice -- anything that will help you through this challenging time.

Hope you all have a great week and thanks for joining me for another Tarot Tuesday.
